Default C4 to manual conversion in a 70

Hi All. I need some help and can't seem to find the answers anywhere on the 'net. I have a 70 fastback with a C4 in it now and want to install a T-56 into it which I also have. Now, problem is I can't find a clutch pedal assembly out of a manual 70 car anywhere and the only reproductions are for the 65-68 cars that I've seen. Nobody that I have found has a re-pro unit for the 69-70 cars so basically I would have to locate one out of a wrecked car somewhere which appears to be quite the process to say the least.. So, my question is has ANYBODY done a retrofit and installed say a assembly from a Fox Body 79-93 ish car with the quadrant etc into this year car?. Obviously , this is much easier to get ahold of if someone has made it work?...Any help would be appreciated...Thanks

Not sure what the difference is between 68 and 70. There's one on ebay now but it's $500.

i tried bruce at Modern driveline and he advised me the 68 pedal won't work on the 69 or 70 cars. I saw the $500 one on ebay..OUCH!..I may have to go that way though unless some other option is avail.

It sucked doing so but I ended up buying complete support with pedalson ebay in order to swap the FMX for a TKO 600. I would think someone would be working up a repop for these as we speak.

I ended up buying a refurbished support, clutch and brake pedal assembly from someone on ebay. you don't need the support. And the support is different from 69 to 70. i searched for months for a repop or one from a junk yard no luck.
